Thanks for this video.. My turnaround starts now
But then idk what to do if I just mix intros and outros
Woww you made my DJ basic lessons more terrific!
Please make a video illustrating how to do what you just did using only the lit parts of the songs
Or how can a dj mix like that through around 30 songs in 15 minutes
Just learning to DJ at 48! Your videos have been such a great teaching source! You explain everything so clearly, thank you so much! xx
Im learning now at 50. Lots to take in. I'm on the course might take me awhile. These videos are really helpful.
49. Same. The advantage we have - the music was better! Haha.
Me too I’m 40yrs old
Update I am doing really well. Ive got it. And I’m learning techniques now. I’m chuffed as I thought would struggle. Phils course is very good.
Same here, started at 49, Phil has been a legend, massively helped me
Several friends and myself had a pair of technics and a mixer back in the early 90s. Used to hold a few "private" parties, renting out village halls and function rooms in local pubs, all the lads who were into DJing would get a spot. Some really good others not so much! Recently got back into the world of the DJ through a work colleague. OMG how this has advanced from back in the day and the sound you can achieve on these new rigs is mind blowing. Back in the 90s getting a PC and production software was "the dream" as the costs were crazy, pirate software if you were lucky enough to find it was really the only way to access this world. Now this WILL make me sound old, but here it is! You young people don't know how lucky you are, all this was just a dream when I was a lad! 😂 😂 Now looking at getting some production software with my mate, look out for the first multi platinum track to drop! 😂
Great Channel and videos, keep up the great work. Great hobby and healthy focus for the yoof of today, in what seems to be a more and more crazy world.
learned a lot in one video. Thank you much.
You are awesome! Your your tutorials are by far the best I’ve found. I love how articulate you are, everything make sense. I watched you teach your dad how to DJ DNB which was brilliant and hilarious at the same time and I now want to do your course! I’m 50 year old and love old skool house. Thanks Phil
Your videos are great, I'm new to djing just got my pioneer DDJ 800 and although I learned quickly how to use the mixer and the rekordbox software (I'm a software designer) the hard part is how to utilize it all and your videos are extremely helpful and the best I've seen. Thanks so much and keep up the great work!
I m 28, learned 3 adobe programs to a professional level solely by YT. I can herby congratulate you to one of the best "explanation" videos ever I have ever come across.
^^^ I second this.
I third this
Amazing tutorial! I am learning to DJ at the moment, and have been getting frustrated lol! This has just cleared so much up for me! Thank you 🙏❤
This is a fantastic explanation for a beginner like myself, thanks👍🏻
Haven't finished watching and this is already by far the best video I've seen on the subject. Great.
Awesome lesson !
I’ve been struggling to find the point to start transitioning into the next song and this was my answer! Thanks Phil, I’ve been loving the courses, especially... you know... ALL OF THEM😂😂❤️ How can i mix into my entire list of legally downloaded songs together perfectly? I want to be able to go into different genres and hugely different bpm differences without struggling. Please do a tutorial
Thanks for your help
Sincerely, Sebastian
Beats, bars, phrases...mostly 16 bars at intro and outro...match a track's outro to the next's intro
Thank you!
Great video, I like how you broke it down into easy to understand sections. Thanks!
Great video!! Helped me on two levels, DJing and beat making #musictheory
Good stuff 👍🏼 thx for explaining the basics very detailed and well
woww thank you so much !! everything clear
i only like music videos to refer back too as thats what i used the like button for. i wont ever be refering back to this to relisten but it deserves a like. great guy well explained. hes so clear and friendly and outgoing great lad... fuk it deserves a sub too
Thanks uncle Phil! Really helped me gain a new passion ❤❤
you make one of the best explanations videos, please keep them coming!
Man you are great ♥️♥️
It's been a great help for me
Great video, thanks Phil! Already used these tips in my latest mix :)
I been mixing music I'm good. Ut this video so f..... HELPFUL TY
Super sir... Super antey... From india
When you start your mix when the phrase comes in. Do you start it on the one the kick of the next track or do you find the phrase of the track you are bringing in and mix from the phrase? And is it okay to mix phrase on phrase
verry helpfull. thank you
And this my friends is how you make hit songs
So useful. Thank you Phil!
Great vid! Thabks
Helpful guy after 2 wks I did a mix is there any way u cud lisen to it
Nice
Great vid respect from South Africa
Hello, how can I handle the issue of sentences, in order to remember how many sentences an intro and an outro are made up of? I use traktor pro 3
Beats, Bars, Battlestar Galactica
Is bandlab good enough
Nice video.
From Nairobi Kenya
12:46 couldnt do that again if you tried your'e welcome ;)
You sir are amazing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I do have a question, what's the difference between ableton and rekordbox and do I need them both to start DJ for family?
Music theory 101... dumbed down for the audience
I started as a DJ in seventies. Turntables with pitch control were brand new. Eager to learn how to deal with these technologies. I guess things are easier today. This teacher rocks.
Props to you for not being an elitist and calling new technologies cheating!
LESSON #1: Remember to pick bars and phrases BEFORE you go to the screens!!! Learn by closing your eyes first, THEN go to the software, whichever soft you have.
This is the video taught me how to DJ a year ago and now I run my own mobile DJ business. This is the best explanation ever
With Sync and proper hot cues you can do all of this without knowing a thing about bars and phrases 🙂
So my issue, like you said is finding that first beat in a bar. If i Know my tracks it is rather easy for sure, but in my case( in the techno genre) you are always looking for new tracks. My tracklist these days is well over 3000tracks which makes it impossible to know every track in and out.I sometimes just guess when that loop restarts, which is clearly not the right way to do.
(surely you can hide that with clever use of effects) but isn't there rule of thumb how I can easily catch the start of a bar?
A friend of mine plays piano for over 15years and always tells me when Im not hitting bar number 1 in both tracks, but he cannot really explain how he does it. Is there maybe some sort of exercise to train your ears for it?
Hi I'm enjoying your videos . I'm starting to learn how to DJ and I trying to understand the bar and all the stuff in this videos 🙁🙂 but I am a bit confused
I'm confused too..
So many "djs" have no clue about this topic! Good for you for highlighting this! Really important for good seamless mixing 🙏👌
Absolutely brilliant lesson, this absolutely makes so much sense, it now seems to be clicking into it place, I felt I tried to run before I could walk and needed to bring it back a bit, and this is perfectly explained, I needed this.....thanks Phil, top guy!!
Nice video. Since some time your videos quality and info improved. In the past they were also very nice, but now they are overall more complex. Keep up the work, coz the way you explain and your "method" and info that you provide are very very good. If you keep it like this, you'll be a dangerous rival for your competition (of "teachers" that provide free RUclips videos but also sell their dj courses).. Or you already became.
Started out about 6 months ago as a new hobby, bought the numark party mix and watched alot of your videos, love the way you explain stuff so clearly and techniques for helping out, I've now upgraded to the ddj 400 as I'm enjoying it so much, if I ever bump into you whenever life is remotely normal il buy you a pint. Cheers
Hey thank you very much, good video, this will improve the technique, what a good tip, thanks, the channel is very good! Regards ...
That was a great video. I'm going g to listen to it on loop today. Perfect!
Hi Phil, I know this is an old video but I'm just starting to learn this technique. I'm finding I can do similar at 8 bars and I'm not sure which one to follow 8 or 16 bars. Both sound equally good but what are your thoughts for house music?
I'm curious about this as well!
You're an awesome teacher! Thank you this was so helpful.
This guy is a legend and is so useful. I’m so grateful for this guys channel
DOES A BREAKDOWN ALWAYS FOLLOW the INTRO in EDM MUSIC??????????!!!!!!
VIDEO ON THE STRUCTURE OF BREAKDOWNS , Builds, Verse, Chorus…. I have ZERO education on this!!!
THANK YOU !!!
🙏🙏🙏🎶🎶🎶🎧🎧🎧🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻
Great video. I'm relearning music/DJ'ing and it's cool to hear it explained now compared to when I learned in the 90’s. I was taught to count beats, not bars...learned about major and minor breaks (64 and 32 beats)... later learned to listen to the beginning and end of every track before I played it (and count the intro/outro). It's pretty awesome to relearn 25 years later. Great stuff.
Hi i like the way you explain dj stuff and how about a challenge? Can you do a video when you mix standard pop or rock hits from the 80-90s? Free to choose the tracks, just standard radio songs. Im working on to lix death metal just for fun. :-) Have a nice weekend! Keep on ,keeping on!
hey phill. so I never knew that you count beats like 1234 2234 3234. 4234 5234 etc Is this so that when you've reached say. 8234 that's. 8 bars ? is. that the theory behind it? great video bro
Hey. isn't the total bar count for Track A is 142? As shown on grid at around 15:12. wouldn't this mess up reaching the breakdown of track B at perfect timing??? Pls help as I'm confused on this one
I’ve got an idea for a new video. Gather six videos with different patterns of phrases and explain how they are put together. For example, some songs have short 4 bar breakdowns, some have bridges, some have three drops, etc. Then with each track, show how it might be transitioned.
Question, why cue on the 124 beat from the outro, isn't 32 × 4 128 , sorry if this sounds stupid but kinda throws me off.
Thanks for the videos man, would be great not to have music in the background whilst your speaking.
A good teacher makes all the difference!
I found you through "Mixing in key" and I subbed because of this one. Thanks for these, they have just enough info for beginners and your rants really help open my eyes to the genre.
You were supposed to tell us when to mix in… you’re not just gonna mix in after 16 bars every time.
I've gotten used to counting bars by instead of the way you say is just by feeling it from years of hearing the music i can just cout it by going 1 2 3 4 ect without counting the individual beats
one of the best tutorial videos regarding anything I've seen on youtube for sureee!! Kudos!!
Dear Phil,
First of all, thank you for the great tuts. I'm following you more than one year now and I have learned a lot from you.
I have 1 problem, SONG STRUCTURE!
Could you please make a tut about this, Like from the beginning till the end. eg: first intro 16 bar, then.. x bar, then.. x bar etc.
thx
You are wonderful😍
Bless you Phil 🙏🏻🙏🏻
One more question, should I make folders containing different songs with specific phrase sizes? Ex: 2 Bar Phrases and 4 Bar Phrases
Base Gaming you do realize that a phrase is 8 Bars long, right?
Thanks very much fot the video it was very well explained hopefully with your help i ll finally achieve a long overdue wish of being able to dj
Wow. Thank you soo much. I have always felt music but I never understood what I was listening to this explanation helped me to think of music from a logical perspective
Hey Phil, loved your vid!! Just started researching and learning about DJ’ing within the last few weeks. This was such a phenomenal video and explanation. Really helped me further understand beats/bars/phrasing. Look forward to watching more of your videos and learning. Thank you!
I want to make my own music but what would be a good app, software or anything to make it on my computer
Controllers, Serato....etc makes mixing so much easier it's a cheat sheet
Very very nice!!!! Congratulations and thank's!!!
Very explanotory helped me understand how stuff work. Nothing more to say, congratulations really!
how come when i count and get to beat 12 i always count it a bar earlier than you? I cant get ny head around it.
Beats. Bars. Battelstar galactica or whatever Dwight Schrute said
Thank you so much for sharing your awesome skills with us!
WOW this video just taught me so much at once! Thanks a lot for the explanation :) very grateful
thank you so much. You just answered all the questions i had in mind.
Awesome explanation of this. I have watched a few diffirent videos on this. That was by far the best video on the subject. Easy to follow
Amazing video but would this be the same for drum and bass ??
If only he knows what 4 by 4 means in my country 🇳🇬😁
1.8k view O dislike wowww
Thank you sensei!
It's so easy to understand structure of music. I really learn it
Very helpful videos from Phil Harris. Explains each subject so clearly and is a pleasure to watch.
Perfect videos, thanks Phil!
fun fact , virtualdj counts the bars for you :p
Hey man, as always the only thing I can say is: "You, sir, are the best!" :) haha, thanks for the tutorial! Like many others here I also think the topic is very important for good DJs - to know and make good usage of the structures in your songs. As always explained easy to understand and very competent. Thanks mate!
It’s Murray from flight of the conchords lol
Sehr gutes video leider nur auf Englisch auf Deutsch wäre es perfekt
this video must have like a million views, awesome explaining way! thank you a lot Phil! regards from Argentina
Very useful information, thanks a lot mate
It feels exactly the same as finding out how a magician does its trick.
Fantastic explanation. My hat of to you. I've been struggling with the musicality of tango. 11:20 finding the one in the bar.
Your lessons have been helping me a lot!! THANK U
Learned something new thanks! 🤟🏾
